I really want to punch at least one of my coworkers. She's been getting worse and worse with her pricing, and keeps giving me attitude when I send them back to her. Whenever she puts the price tag on an item(normally my job), she puts the little plastic thing(called a "bullet", since we use price guns) through the wrong part of the tag for some reason. There's a clearly marked spot near the top-center of the tag that is significantly easier to punch through than any other part of of the tag, and she just puts it wherever, probably thinking it's easier to do that than put it through the correct spot. It's creating more work for everyone, including her.


Perhaps in worse news, my sister told me that a customer was asking about me by name. And from the description, it sounded like an employee from the college who is a friend of my ex-girlfriend and one of the people who helped her screw me over. If that's the case, I really want to know why she's trying to track me down, and for her to know to stay the fuck away from me unless she wants some severe problems for herself.

I managed to burn my foot today by accidentally kicking a mug of boiling tea down a flight of stairs at 6am in the dark.

It was an unnecessarily dramatic injury.

My uncle once burned his foot by stepping into a pot of soup that my aunt had left on the floor for some reason (I think she must have been called away to some other errand and left it sitting at the top of the steps or something)

Two teenagers dead from drinking mix of racing fuel and Mountain Dew.

In what reality is drinking racing fuel mixed with ANYTHING a good idea???  ???

I mean, I sort of get it if you're dirt poor and alcoholic -- I've heard of people straining shoe polish through bread or squeezing Sterno through a cheesecloth. Both these result in a toxic brew of mostly methanol (which these kids had obtained from racing fuel), which will get you drunk but also metabolizes into fomaldehyde and basically embalms you from the inside out.

But these nimrods don't seem to have been particularly poor or desperate -- just stupid.

It does sort of seem like the ultimate bro cocktail, doesn't it? Maybe they could rim the glass with Cool Ranch Doritoes powder.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

There's a picture in the laugh thread that is extremely appropriate for this cocktail, but this discussion isn't funny...

The College Board charges $31.00 extra for rush score shipping. I swear they're such a racket it's ridiculous.

I'm partial to the guacamole ones they used to have back when I was in college. I think those got discontinued.

Just wait 'til you get the $45.00 graduation fee, separate from the ceremony, gown, or rigamarole of actually getting your diploma. Then give them a few months until they start asking you for donations for making such a wonderful achievement possible.

Cheese flavoured anything is a plague upon the food industry and I don't know why it doesn't stop. You might as well just go into a sweaty public bathroom and breathe in the air, similar experience.

The cool ranch specks are super-cocaine imported from hell.
